General Urban Waterloo Updates and Rumours

[ac3r]

Yeah, how the people and spaces interact with the street is also a good point. I know some of the professors at the University of Waterloo School of Architecture place a lot of emphasis on that when they are teaching their students. Eric Haldenby is one of them, who specifically covered how absurdly ugly and inhumane of an experience King Street is in Waterloo, describing it as atrocious and terrible as it does no dignity to the people who live there and move around the area. I've linked the specific time he brings it up here if you're interested (the entire lecture is worth listening to, though, as he explores the recent boom in this region): https://youtu.be/aAZ-EMfK_6Q?t=3684
